How to Calculate Income Tax from Income Tax Slab Rates?
Suppose Mr. Nikhil has an annual income of Rs. 10 lakh in the Financial Year 2016-17. How will we calculate his tax liability for Assessment Year 2017-18?
Income (in rupees)
Tax Rate (in %age)
Calculation
Zero – 2,50,000
Nil
2,50,000 x 0 = 0
2,50,000 – 5,00,000
10%
2,50,000 x 10% = 25,000
5,00,000 – 10,00,000
20%
5,00,000 x 20% = 1,00,000
Above 10,00,000
30%
0 x 30% = 0
Total tax = (0 + 25,000 + 1,00,000 + 0) x 1.03 = Rs. 1,28,750
So, his tax liability for Financial Year 2016-17 comes out to be Rs. 1,28,750.
Now suppose that he earns the same amount of income in the Financial Year 2017-18. How will we calculate his tax liability for Assessment Year 2018-19?
Income (in rupees)
Tax Rate (in %age)
Calculation
Zero – 2,50,000
Nil
2,50,000 x 0 = 0
2,50,000 – 5,00,000
5% (new rate)
2,50,000 x 5% = 12,500
5,00,000 – 10,00,000
20%
5,00,000 x 20% = 1,00,000
Above 10,00,000
30%
0 x 30% = 0
Total tax = (0 + 12,500 + 1,00,000 + 0) x 1.03 = Rs. 1,15,875
So, his tax liability for Financial Year 2017-18 comes out to be Rs. 1,15,875. His tax liability has effectively reduced in F.Y. 2017-18 for the same amount of income earned during F.Y. 2016-17 due to reduction in tax slab rate for income falling between Rs. 2,50,000 to Rs. 5,00,000.
Note: This tax calculation is a basic example for your understanding which is applicable only for individuals (up to 60 years of age) without accounting for tax deductions and exemptions.
